Part 4/10:
Maggie’s lawyer, Tyson Langhofer of the Alliance Defending Freedom, criticized the university’s actions, asserting that Maggie never violated any official policies yet was still subjected to censorious orders. The university's treatment of her reflected a broader culture of intolerance toward conservative views on campus, where outspoken students find themselves silenced or penalized.
The university attempted to interpret her beliefs as harassment or discrimination, illustrating a problematic shift where ideological disagreement is criminalized or treated as misconduct. Such suppression undermines core First Amendment principles of free speech and open discourse.
